Finally, here is a Johnny Walker song as the ‘R’ song of this series. I had earlier intended to post a Mehmood-S.D.Burman-Rafi solo, which was replaced by another song, as both Mehmood and SDB were to appear again in separate songs. This is a Rafi-Geeta Dutt duet from the film ‘Society” (1955), composed by S. D. Burman and the lyricist is Saahir Ludhianvi. This was prior to ‘Pyaasa’ when these two SDB and Sahir were working together. Later on I think R. D. Burman worked with Saahir in some films. It is good to have a song by Sahir too in this series. Most of Sahir’s well known songs are already posted with his tally reading 400 plus songs in the blog.

It is the turn of “Q” now. I had decided on this song sometime ago. And having looked for other options too, came back to this song.

The singer here singing a Rafi solo, is an unknown actor. He is a tailor by profession and has been offered 1000 dinars to stitch up a dead body. How morbid, I thought. Hence I was looking for a different occasion, location , occupation kind of song. But it turns out that this is the “Q ‘ song for the time being. The poor fellow has an unpleasant task in front of him and an obscene amount of money for this work which will take care of his poverty for a while.

Last year on 2nd October I had sent a mail to Atul with the following contents (I am reproducing it partly-I had sent the mail after I saw that there was a song dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi.)

“There is one more birthday today, another Gujarati gem (though it is debatable if she is as bright as Mahatma Gandhi.)

Today (2 october 3013) is Mahatma Gandhi’s birth anniversary. We will discuss a song dedicated to him today.

There are a few others who were also born on this day and their birthdays tend to get overshadowed because of the the fact that they share their birthday with the great man.
